The Complete Node.js Developer Course (3rd Edition)

Have you tried to learn Node before? You start a new course, and the instructor has you installing a bunch of libraries before you even know what Node is or how it works. You eventually get stuck and reach out to the instructor, but you get no reply. You then close the course and never open it again.

Why Choose This Course?

Sound familiar?I created this course to be what I wanted when I was learning Node. The Complete Node.js Developer Course covers the fundamentals of Node before diving deep into great tools like Express, Mongoose, and MongoDB. The entire course is based around a single goal: Turning you into a professional Node developer capable of developing, testing, and deploying real-world production applications.

Hands-On Learning Experience

The best way to learn Node is by building Node apps. From the very start, you’ll be programming every project and working through challenges designed to reinforce what you’ve learned. This will give you the hands-on experience necessary to create and launch your own project once you’re done. You’ll be building four projects:

  • A note-taking app to get your feet wet
  • A weather application that interacts with the MapBox and Dark Sky APIs
  • A task manager REST API complete with user accounts and authentication
  • A real-time chat app with a client-side companion

By the end, you’ll be able to take what you’ve learned and launch your own Node application.

Stay Up-To-Date with Node.js

When learning, learn the latest. This course is continuously updated to ensure you are learning the latest Node material available. It is compatible with the latest Node.js version, providing you access to new features as they are released.

Comprehensive Learning Package

Everything you need comes in one easy-to-use package. Stop worrying if you're learning the right skills to build an app or land a new job. This course curates all essential technology in a comprehensive, easy-to-follow package designed to get you up and running in a few weeks.

The Demand for Node Skills

There’s no better time to learn Node. According to the 2016 Stack Overflow Survey, Node is in the top ten for back-end popularity and salaries, with an average salary of $85k. This translates to more jobs and more opportunities for you.

Support When You Need It

You might get stuck. But I’m here to help. There’s nothing worse than being stuck midway through a course and not getting the help you need. I’m in the Q&A every day to assist and reply to every question to get you back on track.

Student Testimonials

Don’t take my word for it. Check the reviews and see what other students are saying.

"The real value in this course is Andrew; he is not just a great teacher, but also he's quick to answer questions and provide feedback." - Nick Hester
